Default Location of .NK2 file

I've seen a few posts regarding finding the elusive .NK2 file in order to
resolve issues with autocompletion function. I have tried to locate the file
by doing a search on the local drive for *.nk2 with no results. Is it
possible that this file does not exist for my users or am I not searching for
it properly? I have the "Show Hidden Files and Folders" option checked and
the "Hide Protected Operating System Files" option cleared. We are using XP
Pro SP2 and Outlook 2003 SP2.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thansk!

Default Location of .NK2 file

it should be at C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook
or paste this into the run box on the start menu:
%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
